Maharashtra Rent Control Act allows landlords to collect up to three months' rent as security deposit. In Powai, 2-3 months is common. Landlords must refund the deposit within 15 days of tenancy termination, minus legitimate deductions for damages or unpaid rent. Document property condition at move-in and move-out.
Tenants typically provide one month's notice before vacating a PG. This period allows landlords to find a new tenant. While written notice is preferred, a clear WhatsApp conversation thread is increasingly admissible as proof of communication.
Landlords must provide a rent receipt for every payment. Receipts should include landlord's PAN, tenant's name, property address, rent amount, payment date, and period. Retain these for income tax purposes and as proof of payment.
Requests for advance payment before property viewing.. Unrealistically low rents for prime Powai locations.. Insistence on cash payments only, no digital trail.. Pressure tactics to close the deal quickly.
